The Petticoat.

Few people seem aware how enorm-
ously petticoat dress Of any sort in
creases the apparent size Of the hips un-
I'll they have seen the same persons IA q
d;ferent-i. e., two-iegged-dress. The
habit OF wearing dress which causes
the duality OF the form to be concealed
is the true cause of all the errors aid
strange contortions which seem In
separable from women's dress. 1t COM
pletely alters the character of the figure
and causes an ordinary waist to look
large and clumsy. Dress mau IN a
woman's skirt and his waist immediately
appears large cut Of I'll proportion to its
height, and this result is the true cause
OF the compression OF the waist among
most European nation". Til it is re-
moved, it is vain to argue against tight
lacing. The majority Of women also
seem unaware how unbecoming a thing
is the tight bodice, which is the stereo-
typed form on which their dress bodices
are made. They unconsciously try to
improve upon it by making imitation
vests ard waistcoats ard falls OF lGce
down the front. But with loose, flap
ping skirt an artistic and becoming form
OF bodice is out oi the question, for only
tight bodice can give the hourglass pinch
rendered necessary by the Slobular form
the legs assume when encased IL skirts.

Fearful Experience OF a Diver.

Gardiner Floyd, a well-known diver OF
Portland Me-, had an awful experience
many feet under water at Mattawamkeag
a Jew days ago. He was at work on
foundation for cotfer-dam at the site
Of :. pier for new bridge for the Cana
dian Pacific Railroad. He had put a
chain around q big rock and given the
signal to hoist it, when large piece OF
the rock broke OF. It fell upon the
diver, knocked him down, and pinned
one leg and foot to the Dotuon. His
crowbar was just beyond lis reach, and
he feared every moment that his air
supply would give out. The bottom was
OF mud and gravel srd rather soft.
MIR. Floyd set to work to dig himself
iree with his hands. As last as he un-
dermined the rock he propped it with
small stones. He dug away for dear Life
for just half an hour befo-e he succeeded
IN getting his leg free. His air hose was
resting on two points OF ledge, but by
carefll handling he got It Strengthened
out and gave the signal 70 hoist. He was
completely exhausted wien he reached
The surface. His foot and leg were badly
bruised, but no bones were broken

CEINA'S GREAT WILL \ MYTH.
Surprising Statement Made hy u Fre::ch
Missionary.
Elom the London Times.l

(Flom the London Tjme5.)
Able Larrieu, formerly missionary
70 China, has published pamphlet
! Z ar!s, Leroux.) on the Great Wall OF
China, to demonstrate that this structure
does not exist and has never exiated.
The populsr belief is that this val!
stretches for about eigh. hundred
leaa les acres China, from the sea to
the i.-,iz1 Of Kan-Sl. That it is
wholly constructed OF cut stone, and is
thirty cubits high by twelve bro"3.
It is believed 10 run straight Oh regard
less CT obstacles. going down valleys and
up mountains. without break, except
such as time has made, along IFS whole
course. This notion originated with a
Jesuit named Martini, who visited China
about 1850, sud his description vas fol-
lowed BY subsequent writers. N. Lar
rieu has lived for several years under
what would have been the shadow Of the
Great Wall bad there been one; be has
studied the writings OF recent writer's
especially Able Huc-Tho have crossed
the line Of the alleged wall in various
places, he has likewise studied the
Chinese history of the subject, and his
conclusions are as follows: Q) The term
"Great Wall" is at the bottom of al the
misunderstanding, ard it comes from
the Chinese expression, "the wall OF the
ten thousand IT,. (2) as described By
Martini and other writer's who have
copied him, this wall does not and never
did exist; (3) a Chinese Emperor IN
ln,,btoJ1,- 5IJ oopoaira 4ba iJoo Of q
great wall from the Gulf Of Liao-Long
On the east to ksn-Su on the west, and
this, though never realized, had be-
ginning; (D all along the proposed line
of the wall square towers of earth, or OF
earth faced with brick, were constructed
at considerable distances from each 9th
g.. bat these were never Joined together
I.y any wall as was originally intended.
In some of the dehles along the route
there are wells, but these were intended
to close these particular passages, or
they are merely the walls of villages,
and are not parts oi q larger scheme.
Hence the only part Of the scheme Of
the Great Wall carried out WAS the con-
struction of these scattered towers, Tie
rest never went beyond the BRAIN tGat
conceived it; it WAS never more than I
fancy, and It is now myth This huge
Chinese wall, says 4Ahbe Larrieu: is &
huge Chinese lie, and rs for the million
soldiers which were said to guard itnighJ
and day, they are NJ tbs likewise. The
alleged Great Wall IS favorite exc:ir-
sion for Europeans visiting Pekin, acG
such a question as whether it exist Il FL
CT not should be an easy one to sett-e
definitely.

USE OF TIE WEED.
= Change Taking Place In the Use OF
Tobacco.

Tobacco.
(From the y. y Commercial Advertiser
Every tobacconisJ recognizes tie great
change tEat is taking place in what nay
be called in q rather new sense the pub
lie taste. Any average tobacconist,
whose trade is not chiefly among sailors
snd truckmen, will tell you he does no:
sell one-half SIS much chewing tobacco as
he did ten years ago. Very Likely he
will be unable to guess why it is, but he
can't deny the fact. I asked one of them
about It the other day. lie said:
ssThe change is due to e. variety OF
causes. It is q great deal more apparent
mere il the East than II The West and
Soath, but it is going on all over the
country. One thing is undoubtedly the
strength Of public opinion that it IS IN
uncle2nly habit. It is hard for man
who cAews to keep evidences Of it from
his c, .hes. That fact makes it lne7lta-
bic that lie bit should so down be-
fore the increasing attention to dress,
that is feature Of modern lie. Then q
great many refined and wel-intentloned
persons have waged war against 1t for
Years. 1t was inevitable that some
effect should follow their crusade.
"But the principal causes are right
here: There is a great deal more dyspep-
sia and stomach trouble in the country
now than there used to be, and no per
son can chew tobacco who has q wesk
stomach. James Parton says IN his
famous pamphlet against rum and
tobacco that the stomach will hold out
against the weed longer than the lungs.
James does not smoke or chew, and
therefore he doesn't know. Common
experience shows that be is wrong, and
doctors support the verdict of common
experience. The action of the tobacco
Juice, which trickles down the chewer's
throat, is to paralyze the stomach. 1t
will do that long before smoke will have
any perceptible effect upon an ordinary
pair Of lungs.
"Then the cigarette has done a great
deal to put an end to the habit OF chew
ing tobacco. The growth of the cigar
cite practice in this country IS, as they
say OF Western towns, phenomenal.
The consumption Of cigarettes has
doubled many times over in the last
fifteen years. About seven out Of every
ter 1ooys who are growing up now slaoke
Cigarettes. And after boy has smoked
cigarettes iew years he not only has no
taste for tobacco in any other form, but
lie has no constitution left to stand
chewing tobacco. It is curious 40"
boys vii take cigarettes. | believe it Is
very largely because OF the fuss that Is
made about them. It has got to be the
common opinion that cigarette smoking
is the most injurious practice known.
That is just Why boys adopt It. itmaLes
them IN object Of awful interest TO other
boys ard to girls. It is soothing TO 2
boys foolish pride to know to tbss peo-
ple have marked him out as one who IS
1Gshing with irightful t@nerity to cary
destruction. Nheihc- that is the c&:isc
oi it or not, it is perfectly certain tlat
more and moro cigarettes are being sold
every Jear ard less and less c4ieTl15 3
tobacco.
